Write Behind Your Back

Today, Tawa Class took part in a Write Behind Your Back exercise as part of our Kia Kaha unit of learning. The children each had a piece of paper taped to their back that others could write positive messages on. Everyone participated really well in the activity and there were lots of very thoughtful comments made. The children loved reading their pages after we had finished.

The lesson

If your going to say something about someone...

keep it positive!

Orana Park

Tawa and Kea class have been learning about animals, their needs and habitats. To find out more we visited Orana Park. We enjoyed a fantastic day, but I will wait for the children to do their own writing about the trip to let you in on the details! I will say though that I was really impressed by the standard of behaviour and the quality of the questions. You guys are an awesome bunch! We couldn't have done this trip without our spectacular parent helpers whose efforts made the day run so smoothly. Kai pai!

Our Dream Dog

The Piwakawaka Group have been reading a book about how to choose a pet dog. We have been thinking about different types of dogs and how there are many things to consider when choosing a dog. It is important that your dog matches your life style. The children thought about their dream dog and wrote a description considering all the factors we read about.  

My Dream Dog

My dream dog woud be a great dane his name woud be Zouse. I think he woud be a pet. He woud be a crossbred. I woud hope he liked running around. I woud want him to be a middle aged dog. I want him to be a large dog or a mediam dog. I wat his coat to not shed. I dont want it to shed because I have to clean it up.
